Lusk and H. B. Lusk and Prazer, WASHINGTON, Aug. George author of the Senate-approved demobilization and reconversion measure, voiced hope today the House would put back the provisions.ripped out by its ways and means committee, for handling problems of the jobless In the reconversion era. The Georgian, head of the Senate's postwar planning committee, said the demobilization bill should embody these authorizations: 1.

Some for war workers at govenunent expense, where they would not bo able otherwise to adjust themselves to civilian production. i 2. Transportation of war workers back to their home towns, "in hardship cases only, so that we do not have these 'people put on the streets In strange cities," 3. Unemployment compensation coverage for" 3,500,000 federal workers, with the government paying the bill. Similar provisions were stricken from the Senate bill by the House ways and means committee, which took a stand against planning for large postwar federal programs, until the cost Is known.

Some committee members contended such a program would cast "billions." The House probably will pass its bill Friday, with the conference committee going to work Monday. Wanted to DMJ. wire efiw sented all T. S. C.
